Show Notes

Show Highlights: I’m excited to welcome Jacques Rene, a 25-year veteran from Gore who is trailblazing in fabric sustainability, introducing expanded polyethylene (ePE), a newly released environmentally-conscious performance fabric. In this episode, we talk about leading through climate change and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible due to brand and consumer demands - higher levels of performance with a lower environmental footprint. We also chat about gaining organizational insight within Gore and what the future holds - more Earth-conscious products without PFC. Gore is leading the way for ingredient branding, and we’re looking forward to seeing what innovations are to come!
